In This Week's Playlist :-

 

Hola! This week la Shirl goes a little south of her borders and fishes around for some tasty latin sounds. A little Samba here...a little Mambo there...did someone say Cha-Cha? You Bossa Nova your sweet bippy I did. Alas, the gorgeous Carmen Miranda, pictured left is not in this week's show but there are more sounds inspired by this Brazilian bombshell than you can shake your maraccas at!

We listen to Xavier Cugat, Sergio Mendes and Brasil '66, Trini Lopez, Eydie Gorme, Ella Fitzgerald, The Sandpipers, Luis Bonfa, Wanda de Sah and The Voice of the Andes herself, Yma Sumac. Imagine the sound of Yoko Ono having her flesh stripped by a pack of piranha's during a moonlight swim and you may have an idea of the vocal acrobatics Yma Sumac was capable of! Don't let that put you off listening though...hehe...there a lots of smooth, cocktail lounge, elevator grooves to Merengue your way through the streets of a mental Rio.

So go raid the fruit bowl, you really didn't want that banana for breakfast anyway, pour yourself a rum and coca cola, dress your best boy up just like Don Ameche and gets those hips swaying to this week's show...*The Shirl From Ipanema*......*smooches* Shirley
